IT COST OVER $4000.00 TO GET THE TRANSAXLE REPLACED. IF YOU NEED EXACT DATES, MILEAGE OR THE VIN # PLEASE CONTACT ME. I AM ASSOCIATED WITH THE 3SI CLUB. MANY OF THEM SAID THEY RECEIVED A CONFIRMATION OF SOME KIND WHEN THEY FILED THERE REPORT. THIS IS THE SECOND REPORT I HAVE FILED CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM.THE FIRST REPORT SHOULD HAVE ALL INFO YOU REQUESTED EARLIER ON THIS FORM. (VIN, MILEAGE AT FAILURE AND DATE OF FAILURE)I FILED IT BECAUSE OF THE RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CORROSPONDENCE BETWEEN MEMBERS OF 3SI ,GETRAG AND MITSUBISHI MOTOR COMPANY. P.S. I STILL HAVE THE COMPLETE TRANSAXLE WITH ALL BROKEN PARTS IF THAT WILL HELP IN AN INVESTIGATION.IT SURE WOULD BE NICE TO GET IT REPLACED. THE CURRENT TRANSAXLE THAT I PURCHASED TO REPLACE THE BROKEN ONE HAS ALWAYS GROUND SHIFTING FROM 4TH TO 5TH. AND WHILE YOU ARE LOOKING INTO ALL THIS ASK THEM ABOUT THE $1000.00 3 PIECE DRIVESHAFT WITH UNIVERSAL JOINTS THAT CANNOT BE REPLACED. NLM

THE ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION STARTED TO LEAK IN DEC. 2001, I TOOK IT IN AND FOUND THERE WAS A LEAK AND IN ORDER TO FIX IT THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THIS WAS DONE UNDER EXT WARRANTY, LUCKILY, GOT THE CAR BACK 2-2-02, AND THE RE-MAN CARRIED A 3YR/36K WARRANTY. NOW AS OF FEB. 2002 THE TRANSMISSION LEAKING AGAIN, I HAVE ONCE AGAIN TAKEN IT BACK TO MY LOCAL 5 STAR DEALER, CARLIN DODGE, AND THEY ARE FORCED TO ORDER ANOTHER RE-MAN, DUE TO THE FACT THAT, PARTS CANNOT BE REPLACED ON THIS TRANNY, THE WHOLE UNIT MUST BE REPLACED. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE, AND THE MANUFACTURER KNEW THESE TRANNIES WOULD FAIL WHEN THEY WERE PUT IN, IE: MITSU AND GETRAG, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE, THESE TRANNIES COULD GO WITH NO WARNING AND CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, IT IS A LAWSUIT WAITING TO HAPPEN. *AK

GMC/GM FILLED MY JIMMY AT THE FACTORY WITH DEXCOOL. DEXCOOL IS INVASIVE AND DESTRUCTIVE TO THE VECHICLE I PAID OVER 35 K FOR GMC/GM HAS SENT SERVICE SHEETS TO THEIR DEALERSHIPS WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY TO PURGE THE CONTAMINATION FROM THE COOLING SYSTEM. GMC/GM HAS HIDDEN THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF VECHICLES INVOLVED. GMC/GM HAS USED THE CONSUMER AS THEIR SCAPEGOAT. BLAMMED THE CONSUMER FOR THE 100,000 MILE PLUS COOLANT THEY HAVE USED. GO TO THE INTERNET EXPLORER TYPE IN DEXCOOL IN SEARCH. COOLING SYSTEM IS THE SUBJECT.WWW.SCUDERIACIRIANI. COM IS THE LOCATION. GO TO ANTIFREEZE THEN SCROLL TO DATE:SUN 2 APR 2000 23:42:41-0500 THE APPLICATIONS ENGINEER IS VERY SPECFIC ABOUT THE AFFECT. FORD HAD TRANSMISSIONS,FIRESTONE HAD TIRES. WILL IT TAKE SOMEONE OR SOMEONE'S WIFE AND CHILDREN TO BECOME AT A DISADVANTAGE DUE TO THE COOLING SYSTEM AND BE INJURED ATTACKED OR KILLED FOR THIS FACTORY ISSUE TO BE ADDRESSED? THE FIRST TIME I REACHED MY WIFE THE PROBLEM WAS A COVERED UP $700.00 REPAIR. THERE IS A DAMM GOOD POSIBILITY THAT THEIR HAVE BEEN INJURIES BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM HASN'T BEEN ADDRESSED AND THE PEOPLE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE SAVING HAVE NO CLUE THE PROBLEM COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THEY ONLY KNEW!*AK
